HULSEY TO RECALL MASTERS DEGREES
January 5, 2010If you received your master’s degree or any black belt degrees from Bill Hulsey from 1985 to present day and want to find out if your degree has been recalled, then do read on.
I am not going to mention any names here. I am already far to embarrassed for you guys to further humiliate you with the mention of your names. You know who you are. Everyone at my school knows who you are. If you fit into the category or have ever done any of the following then I am talking about you. I just wish there was a way I could give you your money back in exchange for the wisdom I have given you. Unfortunately there isn’t, so instead I am recalling your master’s degree.
I have been president of the infamous “black sheep squadron” ever since I left Frank Woolsey’s to begin my training with the late grandmaster Jimmy H. Woo, back in 1975. My students and I have listened to crap from green belts to studio owners ever since. Maybe you guys don’t like the fact that I came from Franks Woolsey’s first before beginning my training with Jimmy. Actually, I can almost understand bad mouthing coming from those of you in business but you Judas masters I don’t train any more, you need to keep your mouths shut. How soon you forget.
If you let it be known that you left my school so your new teacher could take you to the next level, then what you are really saying is that you never reached the level of master in the first place. Real masters have all ready reached what you call the next level. A real master is one who no longer needs the aid of an instructor. So, if this shoe fits your foot, then take off the master’s degree I gave you and get recertified from your new instructor. You can also rip up the certificate I gave you, because for you and me it no longer has any meaning.
There are also those who came to me with the sob story of not being able to afford the training offered at my school. When I made arrangements to allow them to study for free, what did they do? They went out and actually paid another instructor full price while continuing to study with me as well. I gave you first class training that could save your life for over 12 years and you put a con on me like that. What a disappointment you are.
Later on, you had the audacity to come back into my school for another free workout. You actually tried to convince some of my loyal students to quit my school and go to another school. That is the most despicable thing any of my students has ever had done to me in my 35 years of teaching. Is there anything more disrespectful than that? Do you hate me so much, that you try to take food off my families table, or take away my daughter’s college tuition? What were you thinking? I ask you, would you like me to go down to your work and try to convince you boss to reduce your salary by a few hundred dollars? I don’t think so. You think I am pissed off at you, you damn right I am. By your actions, you have disgraced yourself and dishonored me and my family. I am recalling your master’s degree because you simply don’t deserve my signature on your certificate. Go get recertified and trash the belt and certificate I gave you because in my eyes trash is exactly what they are.
I am so glad to know you are now learning how to determine who could win in a real fight without ever having seen either opponent actually fight. I guess I missed that class. I really don’t care about your opinion or that you told one of my loyal masters that your new teacher could rip me apart! That doesn’t hurt my feelings one bit. Maybe he could, I don’t know, but then again, neither do you. All I can do is my best. That is all any of us can do. I do know this though and it is guaranteed, that if anyone is unlucky enough to run into one of my flush punches, they would need a plastic surgeon to put their face back together. All the masters I have trained have this ability. If you don’t feel this about yourself, then don’t wear the belt I gave you and go get recertified
I think that what you don’t understand is that when you say bad things about me, you are also talking about yourself as well. If you learned anything at all from me, you should not be talking trash. I have told you over and over to never under estimate your opponent. You must treat all adversaries as your potential equal. All masters know that this is a fundamental lesson in our art. If you don’t believe this, then go get recertified. You are not one of my masters.
You cannot ever change the san soo DNA you have. It came from me. I got it from Frank Woolsey and then Jimmy Woo and in that order. Sorry about that! I do have a question for you though and do give this some real thought before you answer. If someone came up to you and tried to break your jaw, what would you do? Would you use the san soo you learned from me or the lessons you are learning now? If your answer is the lessons you are learning now, that is ok because your new teacher is a master with great wisdom and abilities, but take off the master’s belt I gave you and get recertified from him.
Know this. I don’t care if one of my students leaves my school and seeks out another teacher. It happens to all teachers regardless of how good they are. I left my first teacher to study with Jimmy Woo. Just leave with dignity. There are a handful of those who chose to leave without honor and without dignity. For you guys, I do apologize. I have failed you. I failed to teach you the most important part of the art. I do believe I taught each and every one of you how to defend yourself in the absolute worst of situations but I failed you in the building of your human character and integrity. What do we really have in this world? We have our character and that is what history will judge each and every one of us on. For those few of you who are ungrateful for what I have given you, I have but one last lesson to give to you and this one is also free. Your degrees have been recalled. GO GET RECERTIFIED.
